mr. romney is not wising up. he made the same mistake when he tried to say that president obama had not said the word terror when he talked about the benghazi attack in the rose garden the day after the attack. he did use the word. if you read the conservative blogs, that never happened. and that apparently was enough of a fact check for mitt romney. that's what he tried to use and turned out to be a humiliating gotcha attempt that failed before the largest possible audience. between 50-something million people watching him fail in a presidential debate. >> i'm the president. and i'm always responsible. and that's why nobody is more interested in finding out exactly what happened than i do. the day after the attack, governor, i stood in the rose garden and i told the american people and the world that we are going to find out exactly what happened. that this was an act of terror. >> it's interesting the president just said something that in the day after the attack, he went to the rose garden and said this was an

mr. hamm chairs a group that advises mr. romney on energy. we asked the romney campaign this summer to else is on the group. they told us they would not be releasing those names. they told us they would keep us posted if and when they do. we know how much sheldon adelson is giving. but all we know for sure is that he has beaten the previous record for previous elections. we don't know if he holds the current record. think about it. does sheldon adelson have competition? if someone else was spending even more man than sheldon adelson to win the election this, how would we know? bob... oh, hey alex. just picking up some, brochures, posters copies of my acceptance speech. great! it's always good to have a backup plan, in case i get hit by a meteor. wow, your hair looks great. didn't realize they did photoshop here. hey, good call on those mugs. can't let 'em see what you're drinking. you know, i'm glad we're both running a nice, clean race. no need to get nasty. here's your "honk if you had an affair with taylor" yard sign. looks good.

governor romney, mrs. romney and paul ryan have given somewhat different explanations about what he was trying to say. we are at a point in the campaign where everything is raw. the staff has had a rough week to ten days. sometimes you try to return every punch does this make a lot of sense? not always. they say they left leaning mother jones and the say bedunked and say they try to stir up dust. they might be ready to turn the page. >> we got our first filglimpse today. two and three said it would make them less likely to back migtt romney. >> well, you know it is hard to say because what you may end up doing is preaching to the choir as you look at those numbers. i think what you see in the campaign is a rekalbration because you can't put the genie back in the bottle this late in the campaign. i might as well make the best of it. they are talking about the 1998 audio from president obama trying to make this an issue of who is for a big bloated government that would be president obama versus who is for a

mr. romney was there with his wife, ann romney, but the president was there without the first lady. michelle obama was not in the room. i think that is what made mr. romney's joke more awkward than it otherwise might have been. >> campaigns can be grueling, exhausting. president obama and i each very lucky to have one person who's always in our corner, someone who we can lean on and someone who's a comforting presence without whom we wouldn't be able to go another day. i have my beautiful wife, ann, he has bill clinton. >> which is a funny joke, but he's also a little bit mean to the first lady, right? mr. romney did go on at the end of his remarks to say very nice things, very nice and serious things about the whole obama family. that sort of softened the blow there a little bit. michelle obama was also the subject of a self-deprecatie ii joke from president obama, himself. >> tomorrow it's back to campaigning. i've been to cities and towns across our great country, and i hear the same everywhere i go. honestly, we were hoping to see michelle. >> that was not president obama's funn
